We’re number 1! (Er, I mean 22.)

The World Economic Forum has released this year’s Global Gender Gap Report where the U.S. ranks number 22 as far as its efforts to decrease our “gender gap,� or inequalities that exist between men and women.
The report focuses on four different areas concerning the gender gap: economic participation and opportunity, educational attainment, political empowerment and health and survival. The Nordic countries Sweden, Norway, Finland and Iceland (in that order) came in first with Germany, the Philipines, New Zealand, Denmark, the UK and Ireland (in that order) as the last of the top 10 nations with the smallest gender gap.
Looks like we have a bit of catching up to do.
